Spring Into Action Weight Loss Challenge



Recommended Posts

So far today... 30 minutes on the stationary bike, and just got back from the gym I went 2 miles (30 minutes) on the treadmill alternating 3 minutes of running with 1 minute of walking plus warm up and cooldown. Feels so good to be active again.

Okay, I haven't weighed in a few days and I am not going to until Monday. But I joined the gym yesterday and I started this morning. I did a 10 minute warm up on the treadmill, then 45 minutes of strength training (arms, abs, and legs), then 30 minutes on the elliptical. I feel really good today, tired.....but in a good way. I probably won't be able to walk tomorrow, but I feel really good today, lol.

Okay, I'm taking a break from exercising this weekend. I'll start back on Monday. Yesterday I went to the gym and did 15 min on the treadmill, and 30 min on the elliptical. My arms are really sore from the strength training on Thursday, so hopefully by Monday they won't be.

Renewed, you are doing so well! I've really gotta get serious and start losing again!

This new diet plan hopefully will help us all get back on track. I am training for a 5k and am entered in a weightloss challenge at our gym. The prize is $500.00. That's pretty good incentive. Georgia, you have been such an inspiration to me. This is a journey. There will be ups and downs. Your ticker shows lots of ups!!!! You rock!!!

Thank you Renewed! I am trying to get a fill next week, so that may mess up the diet plan a little because I will be on liquids for a few days if I get the fill. No biggie though, I'm still gonna start on Monday as originally planned and take it from there. I'm excited about this and I hope it helps us both. Keep up the good work girl!

Oh, good luck with your challenge! I hope you win!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
